#FromMeToYou is a community video project by @adobevideo connecting people across Asia Pacific through our personal cultural experiences.
It all started with #siobak, lots and lots of crispy, juicy meat…!! We were just a couple of guys who loved meats, booze, and our weekly get-togethers. Our favourite hawker centre and sio bak was bliss – until one day we thought to ourselves “Why not we try to make the sio bak ourselves?” That changed everything. And ever since then we’ve created over 500 recipe videos to make cooking easily accessible from the comfort of home.
We’re sharing this to encourage you guys to share your experiences using the #FromMeToYou. You stand a chance to win cash and additional prizes!
